Up in washington the Trump Administration wants 850000000000. 00 in emergency spending to boost the economy and reassure markets scooped by a collapse in economic activity. Researchers in the u. S. Have started testing up potential Coronavirus Vaccine on volunteers 4 of them received their 1st injection monday as part of the studys 1st stage of human trials all the latest from the World Health Organization experts of. The 2020 european football championship will be postponed for a year due to the coronavirus thats the word from norways Football Association the european football body the way fox has yet to confirm the news. Im serious i was gonna glad you could join us germanys Disease Control agency has raised its coronavirus Risk Assessment. To jai the head of the countrys Public Health institute says stricter measures are necessary to contain the spread of the virus and thats due to increasing warnings signs from german german clinics that the number of serious cases is rising. For it lets bring in our Political Correspondent for the very latest on this story hi good to see you so germanys center for Disease Control has raised the risk level now to high for this corona virus pandemic and is warning that strict measures need to be taken in order to prevent millions of people from getting infected so what kind of further measures are meant by this. I think the leader of the institute was referring to all the measures that we have been reporting about in the last 24 hours or so in other words the increased. Lockdown of german cities and germany as a whole certain shops the do not sell essential goods i go out to be closed and other shops are restricted in the Opening Hours restaurants are restricted in the Opening Hours cinemas gyms and all those kinds of institutions are being closed on these measures are still to be implemented in various regions of the country because the actual measures have to be decided by germanys federal states so they havent in fact been put into effect across germany yet and in addition of those things that were announced today by the foreign minister warnings against traveling anywhere in the world and generally warnings for people not to travel at all to stay at home so those are the measures that are about to be. Put into place in addition there are additional measures to be taken to hospitals because some oil spills now are getting to see a large number of serious cases of corona virus infection and the measures that need to be taken they are to make it possible to treat all of us additional patients hence you mentioned the German Foreign minister speaking earlier hes also announced this 50000000 euro operation to bring home german citizens who are stranded abroad lets take a listen to what he said a little bit earlier. The. Ministry of Foreign Affairs has agreed on a unique program with commercial airlines which will bring back german travelers from particularly affected areas within the next few days but we are talking above all about iraq of the Dominican Republic the philippines egypt and the multi in coordination with us the airlines will make flights available for the. Right hands what are we talking about here i mean how many people are stuck and where will they be transferred to. We havent been given exact figures the foreign minister talked about 5000 people alone and moroccos if we reckon on the other countries they were talking about several 1000 people from those countries and we could get through to somewhere close to 10000. 00 people that will be returning in the next few days where exactly they will be coming to here in germany we dont know yet i presume that depends on where the airplanes that transport will land and possibly on which regions of the country these visit these German Tourists come from but its going to be a major operation Something Like this is never been done by germany before how do we see in countries like italy spain now also france issuing complete lockdowns of those countries do you think we could see germany take a similar step. That would be the last vailable measure that germany is still could impose whats happening at the moment is of course something similar but not quiet locked or not quite the situation that somebody who goes all out on the streets is to be fined or will be sent back by the Police Germany the Central Government would need to impose a state of emergency to give itself those kinds of policies and that hasnt happened yet i think the German Government is hoping that the measures that have been imposed so far will finally lead to slow down and the spread of the virus and that this last measure that is still possible to totally locked on may not be necessary all right our Political Correspondent hans front reporting for us there thank you very much. Meanwhile one of the candidates for the leadership of chancellor Angela Merkels conservative party has tested positive for coverage 19 pritish math says he only has mild symptoms and will stay at home until the end of next week the number of confirmed cases in germany is approaching 8000 berlin has not yet imposed a general lockdown but its appeals for people to stay home and avoid unnecessary contact are having an effect as our Political Correspondent simon young reports theres a curious come in the normally pulsating hearts have been laid on Tuesday Morning phone fewer people than usual were out in a bounty in the german capital foreign minister heiko must announced another unprecedented measure a travel warning for the entire planet and said no unnecessary trips should be made in addition the government will provide 50000000. 00 euros so german citizens currently abroad can come home. Also the ministry of Foreign Affairs has agreed on a unique program with commercial airlines which will bring back german travelers from particularly affected areas within the next few days. We are talking above all about morocco the Dominican Republic the philippines egypt and the mall deaves in coordination with us airlines will make flights available for the. Flu. On monday drastic steps were announced to beat the virus shutting many shops apart from essential businesses such as food stores and pharmacies civic life is shutting down schools the actors and museums are being closed nationwide chancellor merkel asked germans to stay at home but strict controls on movement as in france have not been imposed so far. These measures are unprecedented in our country they are severe but they are necessary at this time in order to reduce the number of personal contacts which reduces the number of people falling ill and in turn the number of severe cases cited as she had an icon. As even childrens playgrounds are deserted many parents are having to stay at home to look after their families the government is offering them extra support thats just what were seeing above all is that many families are wondering about money they want to know how to deal with a drop in income this is a huge issue its not a private matter it needs to be fixed and the state must tell you stand up all that is all studly she understood. Politicians continue to search for the right responses to this rapidly evolving crisis medical and the other e. U. Leaders will come together to discuss it later on tuesday by video link. Well as we heard france is now in a nationwide lockdown president in order of the measure he says the country is facing a Public Health war and that it will take a full mobilization to slow the spread so far nearly 150 people in france have died and there are more than 6600 cases the burden on the countrys Health System is not to. The calm before the storm every day life has been up ended as france braces for what the president has called a war after people ignored warnings to avoid social contact over the weekend france has introduced unprecedented measures to combat the virus. Theres just if you dont the press every person will have to carry a document justifying the reason for going outdoors. This certificate is mandatory it will be available on the ministry of the interior website and hopefully on all public sites. 100000 Police Officers are being deployed to monitor the lock down violations will be punishable by fines. In southern alsace one of the areas hardest hit by the virus Health Services are severely stretched there are almost no more intensive care beds available. President Emanuel Mccraw announced that a Military Hospital will be set up in the region and the Army Deployed to transport the sick to hospitals. Meanwhile one of frances biggest luxury conglomerate is lending its support to the medical sector production of cosmetics is on hold as the group dedicates itself to producing sanitizing gel. Could cost american pharmaceutical factories are very similar and the recipe is nearly the same. So we rerouted the production line to produce this joe which we hear could soon be in short supply in hospitals in. France has also announced prices measures to provide Financial Support to Small Businesses many of which may not be able to stay afloat during the crisis. In the u. S. Treasury secretary steven minucci and will ask congress to approve an 850000000000. 00 emergency aid package to protect the economy its big reported that these measures include plans to provide relief to the u. S. Airline industry which has suffered tens of billions of dollars in losses due to the pandemic if approved the stimulus plan would also help Small Businesses stay afloat and cut taxes for millions of american workers. All right lets talk about the story now with the financial correspondent holds a louise battle is down at wall street for us i hope they get to see you how is wall street reacting to this report this report. So for it seems that its still very very early to celebrate its been a really top people start of the trading says you know already as we speak markets are up about only 54 points they were down 200 points and at the beginning of the trading session we were up around 500 points so as you can see it seems that things could go wrong very quick here in the trading session the bill is still in the in the senate hands i need to go up to 850000000000. 00 as you point out and may also include up to 50000000000. 00 to bail out the u. S. Airlines still. This is still like debated and the key here a lot of americans leave check to check and unless that they receive immediate assistance and basically some senators are proposing theyll probably wont be able to pay the rain to pay their mortgage or even buy food could make a bad situation even worse also there is a lot of talk of why bailing out airlines and not the full range of industries are packed up by the Current Situation was it beyond airlines and these tax cuts i mean looking at the big picture here how could this bill really help stabilize what is such a volatile situation on the markets right now. Well i think that as i said before timing timing is key and any measure is a need to to to protect consumers and Consumer Confidence and to make sure they can survive without the major disruptions already during the Current Situation and also they will keep some confidence to restart their lives as usual when when the situation its over but its going to be very difficult since economists are already projecting a contract you know 5 percent in the u. S. Economy for the 2nd quarter and around 80000000. 00 jobs are right now so the goal should be. Some kind of stimulus or. Soon as possible probably because we could because if by any chance senators go into recess or leave town the recent chance they could not be able to return back to d. C. In time for a boat if things get delayed posy said markets started a bit choppy today and yesterday we saw the worst drop since 1970 i mean give us an idea of what they are like theyre down on wall street what are traders saying. Traders say youre out of the exchange here and try to keep a smile on their faces but they say these situation its an uncharted territory they wont come to monetary stimulus from the fed now they are waiting for the preschool one from washington but but they are clear to say that it is too early to call a bottom into stock up market in the meantime markets are are still open and so you can see the exchange is open all abuzz need to be checked before entering the building on the Trading Floor and you know worst Case Scenario the Trading Floor here at the New York Stock Exchange come fully operate electronically if they decide to to close it up some point down right our financial correspondent there was it was they had 0 on wall street thank you very much. Meanwhile researchers in the u. S. Have started testing a potential Coronavirus Vaccine on volunteers 4 of them received their 1st injection on monday as part of the studys 1st stage of human trials the test will see 45. 00 healthy individuals received to varying dosages one month apart while scientists check for side effects and the impact on their a new insistence that even if all goes well a vaccine is unlikely to be available for at least one year. All right lets talk about the progress on a vaccine we can speak to a christian in my eye hes a spokesman for the World Health Organization and he joins us from Geneva Christian thank you for being with us here and you how promising do you think the talk of vaccine is at this stage. Well thank you today. We are receiving good from all around the world are on the about 40 different places on treatments or Vaccine Program so any any news in this direction is great of course right now but as good as it sounds and as good as it is lets hear also that the last part of your message which means by the time we will have such a vaccine in hand it will take about a year or so with all the great news we need to focus on today and tomorrow more there in 365 days ok christian thats what countries are doing theyre imposing partial to complete lockdown restrictions were seeing really across europe how long will these new restrictions need to be in place. That is a very difficult question it depends on the decision situation of each country as you just reported about france they have a complete lockdown which is actually where im calling from rome now right across the border from Geneva Switzerland geneva has a different situation germany has a different situation and poland has saw each country is implementing the best. Knowledge into the experience and so the expertise pleased and they will keep these measures as best as they will see it well until most likely cases subside or the curve is spread it is going out lets not forget that one of the most important parts right now is to curb this rise of cases normally for the attractions as such because all of these infected people all those who need to get care in the hospitals are the symptoms of a heavy symptoms or even need Emergency Care they take away space in the hospitals and which means we do not have space for so many cases not know where and europe and other people who have other all any of the other. There are many many diseases emergencies accidents will have trouble these days so this is why its so important to curb the steep rise of cases to make it flatter to have the Health System be able to cope with drugs and of patients ok or its a lockdowns again as time a christian are they enough because weve seen countries like south korea be more effective by testing across the board constantly testing why shouldnt europe do the same thing. Actually you have a very important point so this locked out can only be part of a comparison for croce and the most important things are 3 as you just mentioned test test test this was repeated yesterday again and by director general of the World Health Information in the session and it was it was sent to all governments of the world testing and following every single patient and their contact step possible context is our most important and we can only encourage every government and their real story or as well to do their best to use 3 things test test test test all right well have to leave it there chris and then my a spokesman for the World Health Organization thank you for your insights.
